Mick is joined by yoga and wellbeing instructor Katie Scott as she launches a petition calling for children to be taught how to look after their mental health in schools.



Katie has decades of experience working with young children and says the benefits that mindfulness can bring to a child's life are essential and long-lasting.



Her experience of working in Merseyside schools has prompted her to call on the government to prioritise children' wellbeing - something you can support by signing the petition
